Book Fair Week!!!!
The SEISC Board of Control voted to raise admission prices for conference events. This will take effect on November 1, 2025. HS Events will be $7.00 for adults and $5.00 for students. JH Events will remail $5.00 for adults and students. This change will make our ticket prices similar to neighboring conferences (Southeastern, River Valley). See the attached flyer for more information.
Fall Music Concert is TONIGHT! 6:30 PM in the Auditorium!!
Dr. Magliari and Dr. Ash met today to discuss exciting plans for Future Ready in Mediapolis. Over several hours, they explored ways to strengthen the partnership between our school and SCC, focusing on expanding opportunities and partnerships through the possibility of a new career center at Mediapolis. Dr. Magliari highlighted the need for this facility to support innovative programming, while Dr. Ash emphasized building connections to bring these opportunities to our community. The meeting was very productive, with both agreeing to expand communication in the future. #MEPOPride #FutureReady
Mediapolis: We wanted to inform you that Northfield will have one lane of traffic for the rest of the week, starting this morning, while our city finishes repairing the concrete on the streets. Just a reminder that Iowa is another option to consider for avoiding this area. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

In the interest of providing as much information as possible. We are sharing Part 3 of our “Future Ready” video series. AJ, a student at Mediapolis Schools, took the time to speak about our Construction Trades Program! He’s passionate about the hands-on skills he’s gaining and shared some big ideas for expanding the program to reach even more aspiring trades students in the future. It’s students like him who remind us why we do this—building futures, one skill at a time! Please visit our MEPO Bond page here for the video and more information https://www.meposchools.org/o/mcsd/page/testimonials #MEPOPride #FutureReady

We Need Your Help, Bulldogs!
On Friday night at the Homecoming game, several cans of trash were left scattered on our school grounds. In contrast, the Wilton visitors left just one water bottle behind on their side of the field.
Leaving trash on the ground does not reflect the pride we have in our school and community. Let’s show who we are by taking responsibility—please pick up after yourself and kindly remind those around you to do the same. 🐾
This isn’t just about Friday night—we want to see this pride and responsibility at all sporting events. Whether we’re home or away, let’s represent our Bulldog family the right way.
A huge THANK YOU to the individuals who went up to the school today to pick up the trash—you set a great example for all of us. Let’s all do our part to keep our campus looking its best!

We’ll celebrate with a group photo and wrap it all up with a dance party on the field! 🎓🐾🎉
If you’re not able to attend, no worries—we’ll share a video so everyone can enjoy this special moment between our youngest and oldest Bulldogs! 💛🖤
